"On Monday, November 13, 2017, Missouri’s attorney general, Josh Hawley, launched an investigation into Google’s handling of its consumer’s data, and whether it manipulated search results to favor its own products. The investigation will focus on three issues, according to Mr. Hawley:
Scope – the depth and breadth of Google’s data collection;
Abuse of market position; and
Use of competitor content as its own in search results
Some may argue that this move by Hawley is merely an attempt for free publicity ahead of his recently announced bid to challenge Democrat U.S. Senator Claire McCaskill for her Senate seat in 2018. Hawley, a Republican, drew immediate praise from Breitbart, the conservative website founded by former White House Strategist, Steve Bannon, following the announcement of the campaign."

"Gab, the free speech social network, has filed a lawsuit against Google after they were suspended without warning from Google’s Play Store last month."
